The Convalescent Lyrics - Know Your Enemy - Manic Street Preachers

My bedroom wall recalls what's in my head 

A collage constructed and constantly fed 

Goya mixes Picasso but it's hardly Spain 

Look through the window, pissing down with rain 

Lovely labradors outnumber musicians 

Bonnie and Clyde have made their good intentions 

Pity poor Payne Stewart in a death bubble 

But what a swing and so much bottle 

So I convalesce and I ease the stress 

Cos DNA means does not accept 

So I convalesce and I ease the stress 

Cos DNA means does not accept

Kleenex kitchen towels and teletext TV 

My favourite inventions of the twentieth century 

Haile Gebrselassie looks so sweet and young 

Eyes quickly shift to Jack Kevorkian 

Uneven and tidal all with exit policies 

Followed by anti-ballistic migraines 

And Brian Warner has a tasty little ass 

Scared of cash machines and the Mardi Gras 

So I convalesce and I ease the stress 

Cos DNA means does not accept 

So I convalesce and I ease the stress 

Cos DNA means does not accept 

Alberto Juanterino unique in his field 

These are the things that, that make you feel 

Klaus Kinski with love off Werner Herzog 

Scream until the war is over 

Scream until the war is over 

Photos 

Srebrenica cousin of Treblinka 

Scream until the war is over 

War is over 

And Dante's Inferno slides into dismorphia 

So scream until the war is over 

So I convalesce and I ease the stress 

Cos DNA means does not accept 

So I rehabilitate and get my body straight 

Cos nothing fits like it used to fit
